toenail clipped too short! bleeding! hey guys i just wanted to see if anyone could help me out ... we tried clipping Crunchy's nails after his bath a little earlier but cut one of his hind toenails too short. its really freaking me out because it wont stop bleeding. i know theres that medicine 'Quickstop' but dont have any so we tried using baking powder ...which has somewhat worked. he keeps trying to lick at it but that just starts up the bleeding again :confused: how long before it stops bleeding? what do i need to do? Help someone please. |
Cinnamon or corn starch will also work to stop the bleeding. Don't worry, it will stop bleeding. Just pack a little on the nail. If he is still messing with it give him something else to distract him. |
Wow Im not sure how to help. I know they use that stop stuff too. but not sure what else you can use , maybe powder or try putting a little pressure on it until it stops.Im not really sure, I hope someone comes and helps you soon. the poor baby. |
I am always so careful when I trim nails - and have to do it more often because I don't take much off. I always feel so bad if too much of the nail is cut because it hurts. And, I think this makes a little dog more afraid to get his nails clipped in the future. I'm sure you got the bleeding stopped by now. I sympathize with you. Carol Jean |
thanks guys! :D yeah he's all good now, it stop after awhile. it just really surprised me that there was so much blood. my fiance felt sooo bad, see hes the one who cut his nail while i held him and i know he was feeling worse than i did! but i think next time we might have to take him to the groomers to get it done because the quick has grown too long ...well HAPPY HOLIDAYS everyone!!! hopefully all of you enjoy yourselves and have fun! :D :D :D |
Glad he's better. I did that ONE TIME and passed out on the floor from the blood :eek: . I left her in the sling for a few minutes till I came to. |

I cut the nail too short once too and the quik stop stuff worked immediatley. Maybe you can pick some of that up and keep it on hand for next time just in case :) Glad you little baby is ok! |
These big ole men feel so bad when they give the babies an oowie, don't they? My hubby has to hold a dog sometimes so I can do the nails. He will turn his head and make this pained look if I quick a nail. He was a hospital chaplain but you would think he never saw blood..LOL |
